Summary: Rented for 9 nights for medical purposes. Primary appointments at UWMC, so this property was perfect! Neighborhood was pretty quiet. Only had one 2am awakening with neighbors just outside bedroom. No biggy. The house is old, but very nice, very well supplied and clean. I would give it a 10 on comfort except for the living room seating. But, it was probably more of how we used it as we had a significant amount of down time between appointments and the seating for the 3 of us was not comfortable to watch TV for long periods of time. We did rent a recliner and had it brought in only due to my brothers medical condition. That helped a bit. Otherwise, this is a very nice house and was a good price in a very convenient location. If you’re thinking of staying in the U District for any reason, I recommend this location. Just know you will want a smaller vehicle for parking. I have a short bed truck and it was a little too long to totally fit in the Unit A parking place (extended a bit into sidewalk area). Street parking was a mess as the streets are pretty narrow.
